There are a wide range of factors that can contribute to your water heater failing - from age heating elements faltering to something as simple as hard water in your home.

If you need a water heater replacement, Plumbers El Cajon will provide you with a variety of options and help you select a water heater to suit your home’s needs.
Electric water heaters: These devices are affordable to run and don't need to be vented outdoors. Due to their rapid water heating capability, they consume less energy than alternative options.
Water heater powered by gas: Since gas water heaters run on electricity, they are not affected by blackouts.
Less floor space is needed in your home for tankless water heaters. Their energy consumption is also lower.
Tank water heater: Conventional water heaters store water in an insulated tank until it's needed, in contrast to tankless water heaters. Your requirements for a tank size will vary based on how big your home is.
